Chapter 71

At this time, Zhongli's posture was also exposed to everyone.

"That is... Mr. Zhongli from Wangsheng Funeral Parlor!"

Ningguang was somewhat surprised.

"Mr. Zhongli is actually the Emperor?"

Having said this, Ningguang turned to look at everyone's expressions.

Xiao was a bit strange, looking like he had known for a long time, but Liuyun and the others were confused, obviously unaware.

The most outrageous was Jiang Yan, who seemed indifferent.

But thinking of Jiang Yan's strength, it was understandable.

It seems he had known for a long time.

Zhongli gritted his teeth, dragon horns appeared on his head, and his pupils completely turned into golden dragon pupils.

Densely packed scales manifested on his hands; at this time, he had already used his peak state.

But he only had time to construct True Essence defense again.

The fourth Lei Jie descended again.

The next few Thunder Tribulations were extremely dangerous.

Zhongli could hardly stand up, and each time he could only recover to construct True Essence defense, he was slapped down again.

Soon, the eighth Lei Jie had passed, leaving only the last, unprecedentedly powerful Lei Jie brewing.

Zhongli was now miserable, and Xiao on the side was almost anxious.

He wished he could go up and take the tribulation for Zhongli.

Ningguang and the others were also silent; they finally witnessed the tribulation of a cultivator with their own eyes.

Admittedly, cultivators are very powerful, but this kind of Lei Jie...

No wonder Jiang Yan said that every tribulation is a life-and-death crisis.

But having become cultivators, thinking of that infinitely bright future, they could not tolerate giving up.

Even if they died under the tribulation thunder, at least they had been glorious once.

Most of Zhongli's body was charred and numb, one of the dragon horns on his head was broken, and his body was cracked inch by inch, seeping golden blood.

Zhongli was panting, but his eyes were flashing with unprecedented excitement.

True Essence...

It had been tempered!

Now, as long as he successfully passed the last tribulation thunder, he could enjoy everything he should have as a Refining Qi and Transforming Spirit cultivator.

It's just that the last tribulation thunder was the strongest and most likely to threaten him.

If he crossed the tribulation after a while, with his talent, he would definitely be able to learn some cultivation secret techniques.

By then, crossing the tribulation would be easy.

But now...

He had nothing, only a low-grade spirit artifact and a body of tempered martial arts.

Zhongli was crossing the tribulation naked.

Suddenly, Jiang Yan spoke leisurely:

"Earth obtains the One to be peaceful, Spirit obtains the One to be spiritual, Valley obtains the One to be full, All things obtain the One to be born."

"My heart is clear as a mirror, my intent is broad as the sky."

"With my fortune, I combine with the Great Dao of heaven and earth."

"This is the Shushan Sword Control Art."

This remark reached everyone's ears, and for a time, they were all somewhat confused.

Keqing and the others understood that this was the Shushan Sword Control Art, but no matter what, just by these few words, they couldn't comprehend it.

But what Jiang Yan was truly saying was to Zhongli.

0 ask for flowers 0

There is great fortune between life and death.

Zhongli, with the talent of a Heavenly Spirit Root, Jiang Yan believed he could understand.

Sure enough, Zhongli's eyes flashed with spiritual light.

Finally, he understood the method of the Sword Control Art. Although it was only an introduction, how could the dignified Shushan Sword Control Art not be able to resist a mere Refining Qi and Transforming Spirit Lei Jie?

Zhongli laughed loudly and formed a sword with his fingers.

All things in heaven and earth can be swords!

In an instant, the Vortex Vanquisher burst into golden light again, and as Zhongli manipulated it, it went straight to the nine heavens.

That last thunder also descended with a bang.

Zhongli's heart was unprecedentedly clear.

Only that thunder remained in his eyes.

Finally, the Vortex Vanquisher controlled by Zhongli, carrying the power of heaven and earth, shattered the Lei Jie.

The endless thunder clouds in the sky were also completely stirred to pieces by this spear.

If it fell to the ground, I'm afraid that in an instant, most of Liyue's land would be gone.

The clouds cleared and the rain stopped.

Zhongli stood on the nine heavens, with the Vortex Vanquisher floating beside him.

The noon sun shone down, and Zhongli suddenly felt the shackles that imprisoned him break.

Teyvat's restrictions could no longer suppress him.

From this moment on, he truly embarked on a free path of cultivation.

A golden light pillar suddenly descended from an unknown place.

It wrapped Zhongli completely inside.

The body torn apart by the aftermath of the Lei Jie was reshaping.

It was stronger than ever before.

There was a kind of resilient, immortal spiritual light sitting in the soul.

It seemed that from the root, all possibilities of erosion had been eliminated.

This is a feeling of freedom that has never been felt before.

Zhongli suddenly understood why that old friend pursued freedom so stubbornly.

Breaking free from shackles is indeed a wonderful thing.

It's just...

Zhongli looked down, his concealment was all in vain, and his identity as Zhongli was afraid to have been exposed.

This is great...

With a wry smile, Zhongli sighed helplessly.

But it doesn't matter, with the system of cultivation, Liyue won't have an accident.

Abdicate, just say it.

Thinking clearly about this, Zhongli was no longer worried, the Vortex Vanquisher flew to his feet, carrying Zhongli back to the main hall.

Landing gracefully, a powerful sense of oppression instantly surged into everyone's heart.

This is the reason for just breaking through to Refining Qi and Transforming Spirit and not yet mastering aura concealment.

Jiang Yan tapped the table lightly, and Zhongli's chaotic aura was also suppressed by him.

"Congratulations."

Xiao also stepped forward with joy in his eyes and handed Zhongli a cup of tea.

"Emperor, the tea is still warm."

Zhongli took the teacup and drank it in one gulp, laughing:

"It is indeed an experience worth remembering for a lifetime. It has been a long time since I had such a hearty battle."

"So... how does it feel to fight for life with the heavens?"

Jiang Yan asked back with a smile.

"Very good."

Zhongli laughed loudly and sat back in his seat.

Xiao on the side carefully observed Zhongli up and down, and seeing that Zhongli indeed didn't have a trace of injury, he felt relieved and bowed: ===== CHAPTER 72 =====
